Lady of Reckless Abandonment

A woman is not born a woman. Nor does she become one when she marries a man, bears a child and does their dirty linen, not even when she joins a women’s liberation movement. A women becomes a woman when she becomes what God wants her to be.

“I feel very strongly that marriage is not a higher calling than the single state. Happy indeed are those people, married or single, who have discovered that happiness is not found in marriage but in a right relationship with God.” Gary ChapmanĀ 

No one, no even the man you will marry one day, can make you happy- only Jesus can.

Marriage teaches us that even the most intimate human companionship cannot satisfy the deepest places of the heart. Our hearts are lonely ‘till they rest in Him.’ - Elisabeth Elliot
